The connections run deep in Week 3 of the preseason as the Cincinnati Bengals get ready to take on the Buffalo Bills.

Those Bengals not only traded with the Bills for left tackle Cordy Glenn this past offseason, they then signed away linebacker Preston Brown in free agency.

Asked about the game against his old team, Glenn dropped a “not this week” when talking to the Dayton Daily News’ Laurel Pfahler.

Guard Clint Boling offered hints of Glenn’s mindset though:

“Anytime guys play for different teams and go play against that team in a new spot I think there is naturally a little bit of a chip on your shoulder and you want to go out in those games and play well and almost let those guys know what they’re missing.”

As for Brown, apart from sounding excited to see former teammates, also described Glenn’s situation:

“They don’t like him up there,” Brown said. “They’re going to boo him. I think if I play well, I might get booed, but they will boo him as soon as he steps on the field.”
